About this role
Sun Peaks Lodgekeeping runs a small after-school and summer learning program out of a community space in Baie-D'Urfé, supporting school-age children with reading, numeracy and everyday classroom routines. The work is hands-on and supervised by a lead teacher, and it suits someone patient and reliable who wants a first paid role in education.
A typical day starts with setting up the room and reviewing the plan with the lead teacher. You then work one-to-one or in small groups on assigned activities, help children stay on task, supervise snacks and outdoor time, and note what went well or needs follow-up before tidying up at the end of the session.
What you'll be doing
- Small-group support. Work with two to four children at a time on reading, writing and number activities set by the lead teacher.
- One-to-one help. Sit with a child who needs extra time and go through the task step by step without doing it for them.
- Supervision. Watch over children during snacks, breaks and outdoor play and keep the group within sight at all times.
- Room setup and notes. Prepare materials before the session, tidy afterwards, and pass on brief written notes about each child's day.
What they're asking for
- No experience needed. This is an entry-level role and training is provided on site by the lead teacher.
- Education. A high school diploma or equivalent is required; no post-secondary credential is asked for.
- Language. English at CLB 5 or better for clear instructions with children and staff.
- Background check. A satisfactory criminal record check with vulnerable sector screening before the first shift.
What the employer offers
- Paid training. Orientation and the first two weeks of shadowing are paid at the full hourly rate.
- Sick leave. Paid sick days as set out in Quebec labour standards, no doctor's note for short absences.
- Gear provided. Program supplies, a staff shirt and sun protection for outdoor duty are supplied.
